It’s the best time of my life, really, that (inaudible) because we knew there was something going on. There was big planes, the B-29’s and that flying by all day long and, you know, they didn’t bomb our place too much but they’d be going over. And you could hear them talking and we knew that they were scared. Something was going on. But how the Americans found our camp I don’t know but they found our camp and they started to drop food. Even the civilians didn’t know what was going on, you know. I feel sorry for the civilians because the civilians were starving just as much as we did but as far as eating, the Jap civilians didn’t have much to eat anyway. Everything went for the army.
